When must a player be removed from the bench?
Player comes off the bench to join in a fight. Is he/she disqualified or ejected?
I'm sure there are other examples.
Thanks in advance

1. Disqualification is a procedural action to not allow someone to play. An ejection is an action by rule that removes you from the game based off of unsporting or conduct.
2. A player is never removed from the bench in high school (unless such organization has a procedure to do so) unless their actions are behavioral in nature that could remove them from the bench. At higher levels, it is part of the rule they must leave the bench or the confines of the contest.
3. Joining a fight is an ejection or leaving the bench is an ejection.
Usually, ejections require a report of some kind to be filed or brought to the attention of the governing body on some level. I do not know anyone that has to file a report for someone fouling out of the game.
